Jenny, I adore you! This was heaven sent! I’m so greatful you decided to go all the way! Inspiring food, creative, makes me salivate and the presentation is absolutely impeccable! Currently eating fish and tired of feeling guilty about it! You seem like a wonderful start for me, in the right direction. Vegan life, here I come!

Congratulations Jenny!!!!!! :D :D :D This was well deserved, I would totally go and buy the book when it comes out in English! Looking forward to seeing it in major bookstores hopefully! I’m wondering if you could you recommend a substitute for mushrooms in this recipe? Although long beans wrapped in vermicelli alone would probably be delish as well!

I just made that recipe, soooo good!!! Did not have any mushroom so I made it with carrots and bean instead. It was easier to make than I though, everything hold well together with the chickpea flour. Very good!
I live in Seattle and I discovered you recently. Love your style! Cannot wait to get your cooking book, we need it in English! :)

I found you today quite by accident at Youtube, but girl, am I happy with it! I just realized I must be a minimalist by personality and even if I need to let the idea and my thoughts sink in for a while, I believe this might just explain a lot of things in my life, both positive (the minimalism already implemented, which bring me comfort and hapiness) and negative (the areas in which I have not yet implemented minimalism, and that are bothering me). As for the book, an English version PLEASE! Have you considered using the print on demand options given by Amazon? Could be a way to start feeding your English language readers. Tack sa micket for sharing all that you do! :)

Your cookbook looks amazing! And not only vegan, but mostly gluten-free and without sugar…! You can’t imagine how hard I’ve been searching for a good cookbook like this… not just vegan, gluten-free and no sugar (white sugar), but that also looks good, has beautiful pictures and a great design. (most cookbooks I’ve found in this line doesn’t look so great in the layout part).

I’m extremely looking forward to when New Vegan is available in English… please publish it in English!
